Ultra tight group.Very impressive. Handload or factory ammo? Which brand?

Its only when you roll your own can you expect results like these, but on the same note, some of the factory stuff being made today is pretty darn awesome too!

Impressive.I just like the 6.5 Swede.It is such an inherently accurate cartridge.It is high on my list of calibres to get. :cheers:

BTW, Are they hand-loads or factory ammo?Thanks.

Phew - amazing Corjack - you simply knocked the target's left eye out! He's going to need some serious reconstructive surgery :lol:! Congrats!

How many rounds in that super tight group - FIVE? :cheers:

There were only three rounds shot, and they were my handloads. I own four 6.5X55s, and the best thing about them is, they are easy to develope accurate loads for, and easy on your shoulder.

Actually groups do not matter at all, the first bullet in the proper place, is usually all that is needed.
